Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 185

"I..." Dominic gritted his teeth. He said with much difficulty, "I've thought it through. We'll leave and go abroad."

Although leaving and going abroad was a difficult thing, he was aware that maybe they would have the chance to return there as long as the Conrad Group was still there.

Otherwise, both the Conrad group and the Conrads would be ruined.

He was certainly not a fool, and he knew how to make his choices.

After hearing his reply, Henry became satisfied. "Then be quick. I hope that I'll be able to hear the news that the Conrads have moved abroad in the next two days."

"Alright." Dominic smiled bitterly. "I'll be quick. But Henry, can you please come and pay Jackie a visit? She misses you so much, and she wants so badly to meet you these few days."

"No. I won’t meet her anymore. That’s it." Henry was straightforward, without leaving them any hope.

Dominic sighed. "Fine. I'll tell Jackie the truth."

"Okay." Henry nodded.

After he hung up the phone, he threw his phone aside. He then supported himself and lay on the bed again.

He knew that the master might not be satisfied with his decision, asking the Conrads to move abroad.

But that was his only choice. He could not bear to see Jackie and the Conrads be ruined.

So he was left with no choice. Besides, the Conrad Group was not a company that had a stable foundation. If the Conrads emigrated in a rush, their company might shrink to a smaller scale. They might even suffer a great loss. If they were not cautious, they might go into bankruptcy. Even if the master might be dissatisfied with that kind of outcome, he would let it go gradually.

As he was thinking about that, he heard a knock.

Yvonne opened the door with a tray in her hands." This is what Sue prepared for you as your lunch.”

She put the tray on the bedside cupboard.

Henry glanced at her before taking a look at the food o n the tray. He raised his eyebrows slightly. "I cannot eat like this."

"Then what do you want?” Yvonne looked at him.

Henry stretched his hand out at her. "Help me sit up."

"No." Yvonne did not comply with his wishes. "Your wounds have not fully recovered yet. You cannot move around freely."

"But I cannot eat my lunch if I don't sit up," Henry said again.

Yvonne hesitated for a short while. "You just lie down properly. Don't move. Let me feed you."

Henry widened his eyes slightly. He seemed to be surprised by what she said.

But he did not reject her, and he consented.

Yvonne held the bowl in her hand and took a spoon. Then, he started to feed Henry the porridge slowly.

Since he was lying on his stomach, it was not easy for him to eat his lunch. She found it difficult to feed him too. So they were extremely slow. Usually, he could finish a bowl of porridge in under ten minutes, but it lasted around half an hour to feed him. The food became cold too.

"Do you want more?" Yvonne put the bowl down and asked him.

The man shook his head. "No."

"Alright." Yvonne did not persuade him. She put the spoon down and took up a napkin on the tray. She helped to wipe his mouth gently.

After she was done, she held the tray and prepared to g o downstairs.

Suddenly, Henry said, "Thank you."

Yvonne stopped walking. "What for?"

"Thank you for taking care of me." Henry looked at her.

Yvonne lowered her head and hid the emotions in her eyes from him. She pretended to be cold and said, "I didn't take care of you. I just did it for the sake of doing it. If someone else were lying here today, I'd do the same too. So, you don't have to thank me."

Henry sneered softly. "Fine, you did it just for the sake of it. I have news for you."
